Liverpool are one of three clubs reportedly interested in Schalke defender Sead Kolasinac.

The 22-year-old left back was linked with a move to Liverpool last season but opted to remain with the Bundesliga club.

But he is yet to sign a new deal and would be free to agree a pre-contract with another club in January.

And according to German newspaper Bild, Liverpool, Chelsea and West Ham are all watching Kolasinac's situation.

The full-back is quoted as saying: "It must match for both sides. I have no time pressure."

Schalke's sporting director Christian Heidel added: "Sead is a real Schalke boy - we would like to keep him."

Jurgen Klopp snapped up defender Joel Matip from Schalke on a free transfer in February after he entered the final year of his contract, and a move for Kolasinac is a genuine possibility.
